Japanese Railroads.

"Now, you have mentioned a subject
that all Japan are interested in" The re-
porter was talking to HeihaChi Tanaka
and Naoman Oyatsu, wealthy japanese on
a tour OF the globe, who had arrived at the
palace. and the subject was railroads.
Roughly estimating" said the latter
gentleman, I'VE have now about 800 miles
of railway in Japan and we are at this
moment building railroads in twenty-four
different places. Hitherto our roads have
been detached and disconnected--a few
miles projected here and there. We are
now uniting these detached sections in
continuous lines. and pushing out with
other lines As well. Railway building is
the topic uppermost with everybody. The
mikado is most enthusiastic regarding it.
In the next five years we shall have many
railroads constructed. and Toxic will be
the great center 1t has five already.
Both narrow and standard gauge roads
are being built. We get the rails from
various countries, but chiefly from Eng
land and Germany. as veh as the cars and
locomotives from the latter. As we are a
very initiative people, however, we shall
be able TO make our own cars and locomO-
tives in five years"
Messrs. Tanaka and Oyatsu left their
home in Toxic in May, crossed the Indian
ocean, thence to Marscilles, Paris. Lon
don and the cities of this country. I'VE
are now faster than ever adopting Ameri-
can customs" " said they. I'VE are now
wearing clothes in the same style and
building the same kind OF houses. We
have street cars in Toxic, and are going
TO have more there. and also in NagasaG
and other cities. The cars we get from
America We would have had more
street cars ere this, but We use the jim
rikisha. or manstrength car. 1t is cart
on wheels drawn by man. 1t is very
convenient. Japan is the only country
that has it'-San Francisco Examiner.

The Gyp.y Kettle Stick.

While the tent, as typical Of the home
shelter. has clinging to 1t specifically a
world of lore. ballad and song. the thing
among the gypsies embOdying the very
essence of the home belongings and the
tender love and superstitions attaching to
them is the kettle stick. l could fill q
book with sayings and superstitions about
it. Where the kettle stick is there is the
gypsy nearthside. the inglenoOk. the very
home shrine itself. Perhaps best Illus
trative Of this was my visit to the home
of a gypsy friend in Philadelphia last
winter. The husband and boys were
away on a winter trading tour in the
south, and found the old mother, a Grip
pie who could travel but little, with her
band alone. We together cooked a IA
nous meal at the queer fireplace OF the
ancient ramsha kle house. All the old
belongings were in that replace, hut my
hostess used none Of them. She had set
the loved kettle stick on the quaint brick
work. and the fire and all were arranged
and used precisely as upon the road. l
